Chapter 164

An Zaihe knew that Li Changlu would definitely be angered by the attack on his residence. With Li Changlu’s strength, he must have already started an investigation in the capital.

If it were anyone else, they would have temporarily stopped and waited for the situation to calm down before looking for an opportunity.

However, the thing that An Xin was interested in was precisely this opportunity in her restless state.

Most of Li Changlu’s men had already been sent out to investigate the events of that night, and the number of experts following Li Changlu must have been a little less than usual.

Even so, the guards by Li Changlu’s side would still have experts above the state of desire, but he still decided to find an opportunity to take action.

When An Zizong walked out of the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect, he discovered that the streets were much quieter than before.

In the past, there were at least twenty people from various large clans or other powers on the main street of the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect.

Today, however, the street looked strangely deserted.

There was only one person on the street, standing in the middle of the street a hundred meters away.

Martial Arts Academy, Nie Qing.

A gust of wind blew across the street, sweeping up a few pieces of paper trash to the corners of the street.

Nie Qing only stood in the middle of the street, watching the fight. He didn’t do anything, but it seemed as though the entire street was frozen.

The northern border of Yan Country was originally colder than the southern Da Xi. The midsummer season was very short, and it was early autumn.

At this point of time, the upper-hand side of the street was not big, but there was an indescribable killing intent.

An Zeng walked ten meters in front of Nie Qing and stood there. He felt that the person standing in front of him wasn’t a person, but a long blade that had already left its sheath.

“”You came to see me?””

Anjou asked.

Nie Qing nodded, then shook his head, “”Is it okay to show respect?””

“”Not so good.””

Nie Qing asked, “”What do you need?””

“”I’ll find anything I need,”” he said.

Nie Qing was silent for a moment, then said, “”If I were you, I would do the same thing.””

“”I only came here to tell you that you have been too flamboyant at times. The Martial Arts Academy and the Military Department are likely to be implicated by you.””

“”What does that have to do with me?””

Nie Qing did not laugh, and his expression turned colder and colder: “”You are now a member of the Martial Arts Academy, so some things should still be considered more for the sake of the academy.””

“”The conflict between you and the Gao Family is likely to put the Martial Academies and the military into a passive position.””

An Xuan asked, “”So you came here to tell me this yourself, or someone from the Martial Arts Academy or the Military Department asked you to tell me this?””

Nie Qing: “”I only care about saying what I want to say. Seeing the person I want to meet has nothing to do with anyone else.””

If I don’t want to come, no one can force me.

If I want to come, no one can stop me. “”

“”So, have you finished what you wanted to say?””

Nie Qing: “”I’m done.””

“”Goodbye,”” she said, “”I won’t see you out.””

Nie Qing asked, “”What are you in a hurry to do?””

“”Even if I’m in a hurry to take a piss in the toilet, it’s still more interesting than listening to you talk like that here.””

Nie Qing frowned, “”You think what I said is meaningless?””

“”What you say makes sense to you, of course, but why do what you say have to make sense to me?””

“”Could it be that after I hear what you’ve said, I’ll have to sincerely tell you. Don’t worry, I’ll listen to whatever you say. Why?””

Nie Qing’s frown deepened as he said, “”I thought that you were someone who understood the general situation.””

An Zhan’s smile became even more brilliant. “”Yes, you’re right, but what right do you have to believe that listening to you is just knowing the big picture of the situation and the big picture?””

“”If you don’t do as you say, you won’t know the big picture and won’t know the big picture?””

Nie Qing nodded, “”Yes.””

An Xuan said, “”Someone like you can take the initiative to talk to me about these things. I guess he doesn’t like me anymore.””

Nie Qing’s shoulders slightly moved. Not far behind him, the old locust tree that had grown for many years suddenly became bald.

The diameter of this old locust tree needed at least two adults to wrap their arms around it. The crown of the tree was already able to cover a range of over ten meters.

However, with just a thought from Nie Qing, the thick and sturdy old locust tree became bald.

All the leaves and the softer branches fell off, forming a thick layer on the ground like a heavy snowstorm.

The scent of the leaves, however, did not dissipate at all.

According to the rules, after breaking so many branches and breaking so many leaves, the smell would emit.

However, that smell was actually blocked by an indescribable sharp aura, as if there was an invisible wall behind Nie Qing.

An Zhe subconsciously touched his hair. “”How terrifying.””

Nie Qing was slightly startled, he didn’t understand why An Zhe would still have the mood to joke around at this time.

“”Is that what you think it’s all about?”” “”It’s about justice,”” I said.

Nie Qing said, “”It’s not about justice. I just want to tell you that the reason why you didn’t get into any trouble is not because you are strong enough, but because the Martial Arts Academy and the Military Department are supporting you from behind.””

“”You can’t always ask for it without knowing how to pay. If you don’t have the backing of the academy and the military, do you think you’re stronger than that tree?””

“”So you’re blacking out a tree just for what you think you can teach me?””

I don’t know what anyone else is thinking, but if I thought the tree could talk, the first thing I’d say would be fuck you. “”

Nie Qing’s eyes turned cold, and a hole appeared on the ground in front of him. This hole extended out in a straight line, and arrived in front of An Zhe in the blink of an eye.

Andersen lifted his foot and stamped it down, and the gaping wound stopped.

Nie Qing looked at Nie Tian and stared at him.

Nie Qing slowly said, “”Some people who are not sensible should be taught a lesson.””

An Zhan shook his head. “”A person who doesn’t understand should be taught a lesson. A person who thinks he’s too arrogant should be slapped until his mouth is smashed.””

Nie Qing pointed his finger forward, “”That’s right, you are too arrogant.””

As his fingers rose up, countless spears formed from soil and rocks suddenly emerged from the gaping wounds on the street. It was as if countless warriors held long spears in their hands, swiftly and fiercely rushing towards An Zeng.

These spears were not moving forward in a straight line. Instead, they were moving in a strange trajectory.

Nie Qing’s eyes slightly reddened, “”You are just being too indulgent.””

An Zhan raised his hand, and an invisible ball of air shot out from his palm.

The ball of air was like a rampaging general, shattering all the incoming earth spears.

An Zhan sneered, “”Your self-righteous education and thinking that I have to accept it, with an air of superiority that is taken for granted, if others don’t accept your view, then you think that it’s an untimely act … So you need to stop being educated and teach me a lesson, so it’s not that the Martial Arts Academy has been inferior to the Grand Cauldron Academy and the Supreme Preceptor Training Hall for so many years without reason.””

Nie Qing was slightly angry, “”Impudent!””

His hand reached behind him, and he forcefully pulled out the bald old locust tree from the air. Then, he ferociously smashed it towards An Zeng’s body.

The moment the big tree was about to fall, An He raised his arm and grabbed the big tree. He then stabbed his five fingers deep into the big tree. Then, he casually swung his arm and the big tree flew backward.

Previously, no matter how many times Nie Qing took action, he still gambled on not moving.

No matter how many times they fought, An Zaiyue didn’t move at all. The distance between them was always about ten meters.

However, just as An Chou grabbed the tree and threw it backwards, Nie Qing suddenly moved.

He pushed his right hand forward.

It was as if he were holding an invisible lance in his hand, as if Buddha could pierce through everything and split everything. It was an indomitable dominance, a sharpness that could not be blocked.

In the army of ten thousand, I will be invincible with my lance in hand.

Back in the academy, Nie Qing had been challenged by many people.

Every time, he could easily win. He didn’t even need to fight back properly.

But this time, he used an invisible lance.

The long lance was indiscernible, but he could feel that this new wave had swept through everything without a care in the world.

What does a true expert need?

First is my invincible heart, my unparalleled faith in the world.

When Nie Qing released this lance, he already saw himself as a supreme expert.

I forget.

Even though he didn’t reach such a level in the Arena, it didn’t mean that he couldn’t block Nie Qing’s lance.

A light flashed on the bracelet, and the four words “”Fish”” became brighter.

Soon after, a layer of scales appeared in front of An Zeng, and he was knocked back by the force of the scales.

His feet slid on the ground, then into the earth, then his calves, then his knees, then his thighs.

Of course, when the struggle came to a halt, he was already on the ground below his waist.

An Ying’s body turned into a plow, splitting the street in half from the middle.

Nie Qing looked at An Zhan, who was deep in the earth, and coldly said, “”If I kill you, it will be as easy as flipping my palm.””

And he came out of the earth, and beat the earth upon him, and said nothing.

Standing there, Nie Qing’s originally arrogant expression suddenly changed.

He abruptly raised his head and discovered that there was a bronze bell hanging above his head, just a few meters away.

The bronze bell flew back to An Zeng’s side, and An Zeng slowly said, “”It might not be so easy for you to kill me. It might not be easy for me to kill you.””

“”You shouldn’t have asked me for help before the Autumn Ceremony. You’ve been persistent for so long, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to hide it all up.””

However, Nie Qing suddenly laughed, “”At least I know whether you are qualified to stand by my side or not.””

An Xuan was slightly startled, and before he understood what Nie Qing meant, Nie Qing had already turned around and left.

The instant the handsome man in black robes turned around, a wave of raging waves swept the fallen leaves and branches off the ground into the skies.

A meter thick blue long stream spiraled like a dragon, actually flying behind Nie Qing like it was alive.

An Zhan rubbed his nose, thinking to himself, what exactly did this Nie Qing come here for?

This was just a short exchange of blows, and it didn’t seem like it was filled with boundless momentum.

However, this matter quickly spread. Those spies who didn’t dare stay on the main street because of Nie Qing’s appearance naturally didn’t leave. They watched from afar, watching this scene unfold before ending it.

Not even three miles had passed since An Zhe left, the news of him and Nie Qing’s fight had already reached the ears of the various sect heads and deans.

In the Supreme Dao Palace, an old Daoist wearing a pure black Daoist robe glanced at the disciples cultivating in the distant courtyard and couldn’t help muttering to himself, “”What is Nie Qing planning to do?””

After pondering for a moment, he suddenly came to a realization. After that, he couldn’t help but snort coldly. “”Grand Cauldron Academy, they really don’t have the slightest bit of dignity.””

On the side of the Great Cauldron Academy, Principal Su Pei was deep in thought after hearing the news his subordinate sent him. After a moment, he waved his hand and said, “”Let’s temporarily put aside the matter of killing Nie Qing … .Nie Qing’s new hand … is still storing energy.””

Halfway there, An Zeng suddenly became enlightened, then cursed Nie Qing, you bastard, actually using me as a target.

The Autumn Ceremony was about to begin. If anything happened to Nie Qing, who was the only disciple of the Martial Arts Academy that could threaten the Great Cauldron Academy and the Supreme Palace, then the Martial Arts Academy would naturally withdraw from the competition for placings.

Nie Qing didn’t even try his best with that lance, and didn’t even use any force. Of course he could see that … Nie Qing just wanted to tell some people that if they were to find me again, this lance might be able to kill them.

An Zhan walked all the way to the Gathering Merchant House, cursing Nie Qing in his heart the entire way.

Zhuang Feifei saw the displeasure on An Zaiyue’s face and handed him a towel, “”Why did you come all the way here?””

His forehead was already covered in sweat, how can you be so terrible? “”

An Xuan took the towel and wiped off his sweat. “”The reason I came here was because I was too poor to ride in a carriage. I saw sweat on my forehead. It could be because my kidneys have overdrawn.””

Zhuang Fei Fei rolled her eyes at him, “”At such a young age, can’t you be more serious?””

An Zhe laughed, “”He’s young and dishonest. If he goes back to being dishonest when he’s old enough, he’ll be scolded to death.””

Zhuang Feifei asked, “”You’re the one who made so many things up. Why are you looking for me today?””

An Xuan said, “”Help me look for gold rank pills, or at least three red rank demon beast cores.””

Zhuang Feifei frowned slightly, “”Do you think that a gold grade pill is a aphrodisiac that any stall can toss you a large bottle?””

“”Or do you think the red demonic beast cores are like dates for you to eat? You think you can drop a red demonic beast core on a tree with a single strike?””

An Xuan said, “”If it was easy, I wouldn’t have come to look for you. How about I collect a few free goods from your shop as thanks?””

Zhuang Feifei laughed, “”You mean what you say?””

An Zeng nodded. “”Of course, but it has to be tomorrow. Not today.””

Zhuang Feifei suddenly sensed something and her face changed, “”You want to kill Li Changlu tonight?””

No!

He couldn’t be so rash!

Do you know enough?

Do you know where Li Changlu will be tonight?

Without any preparation, you actually want to make a move. “”

“”I don’t know where Li Changlu is tonight, so I need Li Changlu to show up.””

Zhuang Feifei asked, “”What do you plan to do?””

“”How many people are there in and out of my sect? I’m afraid they’ve all seen it clearly.””

Apart from what I didn’t want to be seen, the people who were watching outside were pretty much gone.

“”Therefore, I don’t have anyone else to help me. I want you to arrange for a few people to go to the auction house opened by the people from the Da Xi family and bring Li Changlu out by buying Star Pattern Meteor Iron.””

Zhuang Feifei frowned, “”They’re still too hasty, there must be a lot of experts by Li Changlu’s side.””

“”I know, but I have no choice.””

“”I need that piece of meteorite, I really need it.””

There was one more thing he wouldn’t say … Not only did he need that piece of Astral Patterned Meteor Metal for Old Huo to forge a new pill furnace for Little Liu’er, he also wanted to find out from Li Changlu who was involved in this incident.

This is only the first step in revenge, and it must be taken.
